A set of anatomically related structures including the hippocampus, entorhinal cortex and perirhinal cortex. Membership in the same anatomical region does not imply identical cognitive function.
Cortex adjoining the hippocampus, implicated in processing contextual and spatial information. Its relation to rodent postrhinal cortex does not justify treating every cross-species task or anatomical boundary as identical.
Rodent cortex adjoining the perirhinal cortex, important in contextual and spatial processing. A lesion including both regions is not evidence about the perirhinal region alone.
Cortex adjoining the rhinal sulcus, strongly implicated in object representations and item recognition memory. High feature overlap can recruit its representational contribution even without a long retention delay.
An account in which the region represents complex combinations of object features, reducing interference when individual features are shared across objects. It predicts effects in both memory and demanding perceptual discriminations, rather than restricting its contribution to a separate memory box.
